Book Cover & Preview Text
I want to tell in my Gospel all that Jesus did for me. It s not so difficult to tell about the visible miracle, or my life s transformation, because everyone could see it. What is not such an easy task, is to speak of the Invisible Miracle, the enormous gift which He brought to humanity, and which gave me back the state of divinity that we have lost in our earthly journey. What made of me, what people call, a saint is nearly impossible to put into words because it is something that the human mind cannot understand, but trying is worth it, because some will hear with spirit and Understand. The presence of Jesus is as intertwined with my soul as my breath is to me, or the sea is to the fish that live in it. I expressed how I felt about Him to Shri Ramamurti, and he replied that my intuitive feelings were correct and that this was a true fact, but not only from the time of my actual birth, but from the very beginnings of time. . . This helped me to understand a little, the intense longing that I always had for Jesus and how the drive to satisfy it with other things, moved my life beyond my own control. I didn t understand this longing early in my life and it drove me, out of frustration, to a life of debauchery and disarray. The allegory of what the ocean is to a fish that I used to explain my feelings to Shri Ramamurti is one that I use often because it explains perfectly my lack of, when Jesus is not part of my life; it is accurate and also very natural for me as I live on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, where there s lot of fishing. But it is as accurate for many other lost souls. I know that I am not the first, not the last to suffer from this longing, many others are being driven by it right now, who do not yet understand what drives them, or where this urge comes from, neither are they capable of quenching its needs with anything. These have not yet understood that they are out of their element and are striving to get back to it, just as I was, like a fish out of water. And what does a fish out of water do, if it is not dead yet, but to try with every move he makes to go back to the ocean. Similarly, we have gotten lost from the place of total perfection where we came from and we cannot find it anywhere, for we are looking in all the wrong places. . . This longing is stamped in our soul and until we find ourselves immersed in that ocean of Love, we won t be satisfied with anything, just like a fish wouldn t until it finds the ocean. The turn of the Great Cycle of Life, the Time of Times is here. This is the era of greatest darkness in human history, when the power of the spirit of the adversary of the Christ is meant to reign supreme on earth. Yes, this is the time when the powers of darkness that possessed me two thousand years ago, are going to try to possess mankind; many of you have already fallen prey to it; do not scoff at these words, for these powers are real and very active within and without you. I am an expert on these forces, because I suffered from being subjected to them for more than half of my life. I know what I am talking about and it is not a light matter. This is the reason why after two thousand years of silence I decided to tell my story, just as it happened, with all of its darkness, and all of His Light, to help bring those who have fallen and are in darkness a ray of hope, to remind them with my story that there is hope for anyone, no matter how dark may be the place where they have fallen. When I lived in darkness, many times I was in deep despair because I felt that there was nothing that could quench my needs, no hope, and no cure for me. Those feelings are nothing but phantoms of a lie, which makes us feel despair and hopelessness, they are nothing but the voice of the liar in us who devours our souls. I want to tell all that was kept secret about my life, bring to light the hidden story of the mystery woman, Mary of Magdala, the sinner who had given herself totally to a life of pleasure and who, some said was possessed by seven demons, the woman who was passionately in love with Jesus the Christ and was redeemed by His Love. I want to tell my story, because the Christ is not a legend, neither His Love, nor myself. I was very human, very real, so was He who manifested the miracle of His Love in my healing, the enlightenment of my mind and my redemption, all of which is available to all who come to Him. He has no favorites, no enemies. He is inclined and attracted to love because He is Love Itself, so He is closer to those who love with all their mind, their heart and their soul. Christ is part of us; He dwells in each and everyone s heart as the Supreme Soul, so He knows all of our hearts, not our outside personality, or our apparent good or bad deeds. After Jesus transformed me, I was considered a Saint. A harlot transformed into a saint! Such a thing is almost impossible for the human mind to conceive. But what is impossible for Him Who Is the essence of Life? What is a Saint? Is it someone who has lived a perfect life without sin, is righteous, and better than any other person is? What Jesus taught us is that a saint is someone, who in spite of having fallen into darkness, has a heart open to love and an ardent desire to know God, so God who sees our hearts, in His Mercy forgives us and takes into consideration what He Knows is in our heart, and without questions or judgments embraces us and takes us back into Himself. This union with Him is what sanctifies the soul. It is the existence in total oneness with the living God alive within every human being and the surrender of the self to Love, what transforms a human into a saint. During the short time of His public life, Jesus showed us continuously that He was the deliverer of all fallen souls. He performed the miracle of redemption when He forgave my sins and transformed my life, when He invited Himself to Mathew s house and changed him and his whole life, and later on, when He was dying on the cross and He invited Dimas - who was condemned to be crucified, a death reserved only for the lowest of criminals - to enter with Him in Paradise that very same day.

About the Book
The Passion and The Glory The Greatest Love Story Ever Lived There have been numerous accounts of the life of Jesus, but throughout the whole century there has never been a single one written from the point of view of a woman. The Passion and the Glory The Greatest Love Story Ever Lived is the first Gospel written from the point of view of a woman, furthermore, it is the only one written from the perspective of the woman who loved Jesus passionately as a God and as a Man, Mary of Magdala. It is the Gospel of Mary of Magdala. A Gospel for the new Century. The Passion and the Glory The Greatest Love Story Ever Lived offers to the reader the most complete account of the life of Jesus the Christ that has ever been written in the history of Christianity. That is, it includes in it witnesses accounts of His birth, miracles and stories of His Infancy, the occult, or lost years, His mission, passion and death, and the rarely found mystery teachings of the Christ Jesus to His apostles after His Resurrection, these, although known to Theologians, have only been disclosed in some rare and hard to find Apocryphal Gospels. The Gospel of Mary Magdala is illuminating, human, intriguing and interesting because it gives us dimensions unknown to most of us of the humanity and divinity of Jesus the Christ, dimensions that only the woman who loved Him experienced and can help us to know Him better. At the same time, it also gives to us dimensions of our humanity and our unconscious quest to recuperate our forgotten divine status. Mary of Magdala is an integral part of us, the fallen humanity. Her fall and her redemption are both irrevocably tied to our fallen human nature and to our hopes for redemption, when we read her story we are able to understand our human selves, our relationship with Jesus the Christ and our divine potentials subjectively. It is as if her love affair with the Christ is our own love affair with His Spirit and her rise from sin into sainthood, the hope for our own future divinization. As we penetrate it, The Passion and The Glory The Greatest Story Ever Lived becomes our own story. We learn more about Jesus, His Love for us and are exposed to His Mystery teachings, a priceless treasure of wisdom which is not only liberating, but helps to fuel in us the innate desire to discover and recuperate our true, divine nature. The Gospel of Mary Magdalene is indeed a revolutionary Gospel of Love for the new minds and spirits of the Twenty-first Century. The Passion and The Glory - The Greatest Love Story Ever Lived is a Gospel that was rejected in the past, mainly because it came from a woman. Things have changed, what makes it most valuable in the new century is precisely that it comes from a woman. A woman who was not only one of Jesus closest disciples and His most intimate companion, but the one He chose to make an apostle to His apostles by making her the sole harbinger of His resurrection. In an age when women don t have to bend anymore under the dark cloud of male chauvinism, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, the woman who loved Jesus is more than welcome. The fact that her vision of Jesus is that of a woman, makes her Gospel a great love story, passionate, deeper and more human, very different indeed from that of the male apostles. Mary of Magdala lived with Jesus Christ by and through His Grace, The Greatest Story of Love Ever Lived. Thus, it is her Gospel.
